Quick Wear: Men Farming and Women Weaving

Chapter 53: Farmer's Son 7

Every day I tend to two acres of land and chop wood.

Until He Pozi came to find him and told him that Daniu had married Zhou Daya, the daughter of Zhou Dafu from the same village. Tonight, he came to their place to drink wedding wine, his face was beaming with joy, and he was very satisfied with his daughter-in-law. The ceremony was the same as those in the neighborhood, not expensive, and he knew the person well, and he had been working hard since he was a child.

When he heard who it was, he knew that the new sister-in-law was from the Zhou family in the village. He had also seen her by the edge of the field. She had an ordinary appearance and was not what his elder brother liked.

In the evening, I saw He Daniu toasting with a calm face. I couldn't tell what he was thinking. Occasionally, I could see stubbornness and unwillingness in his eyes.

I ignored them, drank the wedding wine, ate a few bites of food and went back.

After arriving home, he boiled a pot of hot water in the kitchen and poured it into the basin. After washing up, he went back to the bedroom to rest. He lit the oil lamp and took out the wooden box under the bed. He counted the silver and copper coins inside. There was one silver ingot of ten taels of silver, and three hundred dollars of copper coins he had earned these days. He was planning to plant sorghum and corn in the spring of next year without being picky about the land.

The space was filled with food supplies, including a jar of coarse salt half a person tall, 20 kilograms of refined salt, three large jars of pickled vegetables, and five large sacks of various dried vegetables. There was not much more than 100 kilograms of rice, all of which was bought during this period.

I felt safe and relieved, for I was afraid that there were many natural disasters and catastrophes in ancient times, and I had to keep collecting things as I was not prepared.

After breakfast in the morning, I packed some buns and put them in the space for lunch.

He packed up his backpack and axe and prepared to go hunting in the mountains seven or eight kilometers away.

That mountain is one of the larger mountains nearby and is far away from the village. No one goes there except hunters or woodcutters.

At the foot of the mountain, women and children from nearby villages come to pick wild vegetables and mushrooms.

Take another secluded path up the mountain, learn knowledge from the previous life and recognize many herbs. Pick the ripe herbs and put them back into the space. When you encounter precious herbs, dig them carefully.

We have reached the edge of the mountains, where the vegetation is rich and overgrown with weeds and trees. There are also more animal sounds and footprints.

Not far away, the roar of a blind bear and the growl of a tiger could be heard.

I bent down carefully to avoid the obstacles and moved forward. I saw that the broken branches and trees ahead were all scratched. The bears and tigers were fighting and biting each other, and their bodies were covered with blood and wounds.

The tiger pounced on the weak part of the bear and bit it with its fangs and claws. The bear fell down with a long howl in pain. When the tiger relaxed, the blind bear instantly used all its strength to hit the tiger, knocking it down instantly, and its internal organs were bleeding.

Seeing that the two big guys had been knocked to the ground, He Erniu instantly picked up the machete and used the Zhang family's body skills to run towards them at an extremely fast speed, and unexpectedly cut their throats with the knife.

After the two big guys died, they were transported to the space for preservation. It was already late, and I was afraid that it would be unsafe to stay in the wild, so I hurried back home. I ran for nearly two hours and more kilometers, plus the journey in the deep mountains. It was already night when I got home.

Took a shower and went straight to bed.

As soon as the sun rose, I prepared to go to the county to sell these two things.

After putting the prey in a wheelbarrow, I prepared to go to the pharmacy to ask if they wanted tiger bones or bear gallbladder.

I went to the county and found a drugstore that looked quite high-end from the outside, and the car was parked outside the store.

"Doctor, do you accept tigers and bears?"

The old doctor inside heard the people on the other side say that they were tigers and bears, and thought he had misheard. Tigers and bears are rarely seen in this place, and you have to go deep into the mountains to hunt them. Tigers and bears are full of medicine and are treasures.

"If you have it, we will definitely accept it here." The old doctor said in disbelief.

He Erniu asked the doctor to go to the door and check, and said that the patient was less than five hours away from death.

The old doctor approached the wheelbarrow and carefully lifted the tarpaulin to take a look. He was instantly shocked. He really didn't expect it to be true. He was so surprised that he quickly pulled He Erniu and pulled the wheelbarrow directly to the backyard.

In the backyard, I lifted the tarpaulin and looked at the two big guys. They weighed at least 700 kilograms and were very fresh. Bear gallbladder, tiger bones and tiger penis. Tiger blood is also a tonic and has medicinal effects. As long as the death is within six hours, all the things are very useful.

"I want both prey." The good doctor was very happy to receive such a good bear gall, which was kept very fresh. He could sell it to the county magistrate at a high price. The remaining tiger was even more valuable, and the whole body could be used as medicine.

I took out two hundred taels of silver from my pocket and gave it to him, telling him that the highest price he could offer was two hundred taels. The price offered to restaurants and hotels might be even lower than his.

"Can you prescribe some medicine for me?" He Erniu agreed and asked the old doctor if he could prescribe some medicine for him?

"I'll give you whatever medicine you want." The old doctor didn't care and gave it to him directly.

"Medicine for preventing colds, fevers, and typhoid fever," He Erniu explained to the old doctor, because diseases are prone to occur in the deep mountains and forests.

The doctor knew that if someone got sick in the deep mountains and forests, it would be difficult to get all the medicine. Seeing the two prey he brought, he knew that he was very capable, so he wanted to do him a favor. He directly ordered the medicine boy to prepare five doses of common cold and fever medicine for him, and also prepared more than ten bottles of pills for him to carry with him.

"If you have this kind of prey in the future, just send it to me directly. I will give you the highest price." The old doctor said to him happily.

"Don't worry, if I have it in the future, I will definitely send it to you." He Erniu agreed directly.

He felt uneasy holding two light silver notes, so he went directly to the bank to exchange two hundred taels and put them into the space in a cloth bag away from people's eyes.

I went shopping in the county and bought a lot of food, drinks, and some cotton-padded clothes and pants for the winter. I bought a complete set.

Xiangru was on vacation and saw He Erniu while shopping. He bought a lot of things.

"Brother Erniu, how come you have time to come here and buy so many things today?" Xiang Ru walked up to him and interrupted He Erniu who was choosing snacks on the side.

He Erniu looked at Xiangru's performance and felt uncomfortable with the response of seeing her calling him Brother Erniu after only meeting him once.

"I made a little money today, and I want to buy some delicious food to take back."

Judging from his performance today, he must have made a lot of money, it is rare for him to buy so many things. Thinking that his family must be good. The eldest young master in the mansion has been pestering her, wanting her to be his concubine. He Erniu looks good, tall and straight, full of security. The last time she saw him, she wanted to marry him directly and leave there. After taking care of the old lady for more than ten years, she will definitely agree to redeem her and marry. With her savings over the years as a dowry, she will live a good life in the future. She couldn't help but pull him directly to a remote place.

"Brother Erniu, ever since I met you once, you have always been in my heart."
